Seussical

Seussical (Field Trip)

Dr. Seuss’s best-loved stories collide and cavort in a whimsical musical caper adapted from the Broadway favorite.  

Grades Pre-K – 3 

Curriculum: Literature, music, theatre, imagination, reading 

The Cat in the Hat tells the story of Horton, an elephant who discovers a speck of dust containing Whos, including Jojo, a Who child sent off to military school for thinking too many “thinks.” Horton faces a double challenge – not only must he protect the Whos from a world of naysayers and dangers, but he must guard an abandoned egg, left to his care by the irresponsible Mayzie La Bird. Although Horton faces ridicule, danger, kidnapping and a trial, the intrepid Gertrude McFuzz never loses faith in him. Ultimately, the powers of friendship, loyalty, family and community are challenged and emerge triumphant.
